Highway access, shopping and fishing in Spring Lake Park
Major highways converge in Spring Lake Park, a suburb about 12 miles north of Minneapolis. “It’s a bedroom community with good freeway access, which is one of the draws,” says Laura Heppner, a Realtor with Keller Williams Classic Realty who has 14 years of experience in the region. While many residents commute to the Twin Cities, opportunities are also available closer to home. “The hospital there, Mercy, has a good reputation and provides a lot of jobs.” Locals also have access to shopping centers and parks centered on lakes, like the small fishing lake that gives the area its name.

Split-level and ranch-style homes date to the 1950s and ’60s
Most homes in Spring Lake Park are single-family builds dating to the 1950s and ’60s, with a few condos and townhouses in the mix. Condos, townhouses and small ranch-style homes sell for $175,000 to $350,000, while raised ranches and larger single-story homes can fetch $350,000 to $450,000. Properties typically measure under a quarter of an acre, with mature trees shading the yards. Streets are wide enough for two cars, but most lack sidewalks. Attached garages are common, which is convenient given the Twin Cities’ high risk of hail and ice storms. Traffic noise could affect homes near the major highways.
